Defensive end Josh Sweat is active even though he was questionable with a hip injury.

Jones (hamstring), Mills (foot) and Sproles (hamstring) were all declared out leading up to the game. Hall is a healthy scratch for the first time this season. Pryor and Sudfeld are also healthy scratches.

The Eagles have rookie Jordan Mailata active on Sunday as an offensive tackle. The Eagles are also getting Corey Graham back after he missed time with a hamstring injury. Cre'Von LeBlanc is making his Eagles debut.
